I bought a Laptop recently and it has Adobe Encore on it, I started to mess with it and got interested in seeing what I can do with it. Here is my problem.
I capture a lot of tv shows to DiVX, I know converting DiVX to mpeg2 for making a DVD will make the quality less, I'm okay with that. I use Virtualdub to do my capturing, and DiVX 6.1 as the codec. in Encore when I try to import a clip and make it an animated button, it crashes every time I try to render the motion menus. so I found a converter and convert the clips to mpeg2, they import fine, and when I click the render motion menu it seems to work (no error) but when I try to preview I get a unknown dvd error -1
I get the "abnormal condition" crash with no error when I try to use divx clips. THinking it might be the way I encode them, I nabbed a couple divx clips off divx's web site and the same error. saving the clips Uncompressed in Virtual Dub seems to work, but they come out like 15 megs a second and I don't have anywhere near the HD space for that.
also is there a program similar to Virtual Dub that supports Mpeg2? I can't afford Adobe Premier, but I'd have no problem spending 50 bucks on something that works like VirtualDub.
anyone here used Encore? I have the latest update, and uninstalled my codec pack just incase it was causing it. If I don't use animated buttons the dvd's preview fine *haven't actually burnt one*
